Main Research Topics
At the Institute of Sports and Exercise Sciences in Münster, a couple of main topics are addressed and gradually filled content and structure.
- Dynamic Human Systems, with a focus on cognitive neural systems, dynamic motor systems and dynamic social systems
- Social responsibility, with the individual topics of mental and physical health, teaching and learning in an educational context, performance and expertise, social cohesion and integration, as well as the mechanization of living environments.
With this structure, however, no conventional categorization into basic vs. application research or even scientific vs. social science research is meant or intended. The structural perspective offers excellent concepts and methods for analyzing human experience and behavior in various socially relevant fields. The main topics in the area of social responsibility offer complex issues and application contexts for the validation of system-oriented processes and models. These synergies are reflected in the fact that all work units of FB 07 deal with several key topics and are very often involved in both key areas. All topics contain specifications for research, teaching and transfer.
